Product Description

Sony Alpha 7 II E-mount interchangeable lens mirrorless camera with full frame sensor.

From the Manufacturer

Full-frame Mirrorless Camera

Technology

World’s first 5-axis in-body image stabilization in a full-frame camera.

Reduce blur caused by camera shake from five different directions—vertical, horizontal, pitch, yaw and roll—as opposed to only two in previous systems. The 5-axis image stabilizing system excels during video recording and even compensates for blur caused by the photographer walking or running. It’s a true marvel of engineering.

Use your favorite lenses with minimized blur from camera shake.

With image stabilization built it into the body of the camera itself, mounted lenses—even A-mount or non-Sony lenses using an adaptor 2—can utilize the 5-axis image stabilization for both still images and video. It even enhances lenses that already have optical image stabilization systems.

Full-frame, 24.3MP resolution.

Capture stunning images with 24.3MP resolution, a 35mm full-frame sensor, a normal sensor range of ISO 100–25600, and a sophisticated balance of high-resolving power, gradation and low noise. The BIONZ X image processor enables up to 5 fps high-speed continuous shooting and high-50Mb/s XAVC S video recording.

Fast hybrid AF with phase-detection - 30% faster than α7.

This fast hybrid autofocus system utilizes 117 phase-detection points and 25 contrast-detection points. Updated from the α7, this new autofocus algorithm improves subject-tracking performance and focusing speed by approximately 30%.

Utilizes Sony’s E-mount lens system.

Take advantage of the growing family of E-mount lenses, including G Series and ZEISS. The E-mount lens system is particularly well-suited for video shooting, with a variety of models containing “movie-friendly” features like smooth focusing, powered zoom control and silent iris/aperture control.

High contrast, 2.4-million dot OLED EVF for eye-level framing.

View every scene in rich detail with the XGA OLED Tru-Finder, which features OLED improvements and 3-lens optical system. The viewfinder faithfully displays what will appear in your recording, including the effects of your camera settings, so you can accurately monitor the results. You’ll enjoy rich tonal gradations and high-end features like 100% frame coverage, a wide viewing angle, and more.

Additional Features

Record Full HD in XAVC S format up to 50Mb/s.

The α7II adopts the high bitrate, workflow-friendly XAVC S recording format in addition to AVCHD and MP4 codecs. XAVC S format allows for Full HD recording at a data rate of 50 mbps with lower compression for improved video quality. The α7II can record Full HD (1920x1080) at frame rates of 60p, 60i, 30p and 24p directly to a compatible memory card. Video modes can be changed from full-frame to APS-C (super 35mm equivalent) if desired, and in this crop mode, the camera can support high frame rate 120fps shooting at standard HD resolution (1280 x 720p), creating a 5x slow-motion effect.

3 LCD screen tilts up and down for easy high and low-angle framing.

The tiltable 3” (1,229k dots) Xtra Fine LCD Display makes it easy to photograph over crowds, or low to capture pets eye-to-eye by swinging up approx. 90° and down approx. 45°. Easily scroll through menus and preview life thanks to WhiteMagic technology that dramatically increases visibility in bright daylight. The large display delivers brilliant-quality still images and movies while enabling easy focusing operation.

Simple connectivity to smartphones via Wi-Fi/NFC.

Connectivity with smartphones for One-touch sharing/One-touch remote has been simplified with Wi-Fi/NFC control. In addition to Wi-Fi support for connecting to smartphones, α7II also supports NFC (near field communication) providing “one-touch connection” convenience when transferring images to Android smartphones and tablets with NFC. Simply touch devices to connect.

Tether your camera to a PC for Remote Camera Control.

Remote Camera Control allows you to control your α7II from your PC and transfer files using a USB cable. Feature control has also been updated to include video capture control.

Personalize your camera with PlayMemories Camera Apps.

Add new features to your α7II with PlayMemories Camera Apps. Find apps to fit your shooting style - with everything from portraits, detailed close-ups, sports, time lapse, motion shot and more. Use apps that shoot, share and save photos to your smartphone using Wi-Fi, making it easy to post photos directly to Facebook or backup images to the cloud without connecting to a computer.

Designed for a pro-workflow with Picture Profile, S-Log2 and time code.

The α7II is equipped with S-Log2 gamma. Common to Sony’s range of professional video cameras, S-Log2 expands the dynamic range by up to 1300% to minimize clipped highlights and loss of detail in shadows. The α7II include a picture profile that can adjust settings like gamma, black, level and color adjustment, and can be saved for use in a multi-camera shoot. It also has Full HD base band HDMI output, time code/user bit for easier editing, synchronous recording feature with compatible devices, various marker and zebra displays on both the LCD screen and viewfinder.

Compatible with professional microphone systems.

The α7II has a Multi-terminal interface shoe that is compatible with Sony’s XLR Adaptor Microphone Kits (XLR-K1M and XLR-K2M), allowing you to use professional microphone systems during recording.

¹Users may enter the focal length manually (8mm – 1000mm) for lenses that do not communicate with the camera, and are mounted via an adapter (sold sep.). ²Compatibility with lenses other than Sony E-mount requires optional adaptors. Function is not guaranteed and may vary by adaptor and lens. ³Records in up to 29 minute segments. ⁴99 points when an APS-C lens compatible with Fast Hybrid AF is mounted. ⁵Requires a valid Sony Entertainment Network account. Some apps require a fee.

54 customers mention44 positive10 negative

Customers like the value of the camera. They mention that the price is totally worth it, the legacy lenses are pretty inexpensive, and it's an investment worth making. They also say that the camera provides great performance for the money, and the quality of the glass is good for what you pay for. Some mention that it replaces a Sony A7 and is worth the upgrade.

"...What you get for what you pay is an outstanding value and I don't see that changing...." Read more

"...The 50 and 85mm f1 8 lenses are super affordable and are incredible paired with this camera...." Read more

39 customers mention31 positive8 negative

Customers like the build quality of the digital camera. They mention that it has a great build quality, consistent quality, and is durable. Some say that it is a serious piece of equipment and has s solid feel. Overall, most are satisfied with the quality and performance of the product.

41 customers mention23 positive18 negative

Customers are mixed about the autofocus. Some mention that the body stabilization and autofocus is faster, and noticeably better than on the a7. The focus peaking is easily as accurate as the old split-screen focusing method, and it is easy to do focusing manually. However, some say that the auto focus is slow and inaccurate at times, and that it takes significant effort to manual focus.

"...Autofocus is also noticeably better than on the a7. It's not in the same league as a Nikon DSLR like my old D7100, but for me that's not a big deal...." Read more

"...It is not as fast at focusing as my A77m2 nor does it have as many pixels as the A7rII but it takes incredible shots and raw photos have so much..." Read more

Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the camera. Some mention it's relatively intuitive to use, with a logical user interface and simple menu. They also appreciate the buttons and knobs are intuitive and well made. However, some say that it'd be difficult to use and the user experience leaves a lot to be desired.

"...- Relatively intuitive to use, yet highly customizable functions - Pricing: well worth every penny if you enjoy photography..." Read more

"...while the hand grip is better than earlier a7, it is hard to use the front dial...." Read more

"...I find them very user friendly and some what intuitive. My bigger issue with the Sony is how the focus selector is designed...." Read more

"...I am VERY picky about good focus, fast camera operation and ease of use. So here is what the A7II did right for me:..." Read more

33 customers mention3 positive30 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the battery life of the digital camera. They mention that it is horrible, devouring battery, and the viewfinder battery usage is substantial. One battery lasts around 5-6 hours.

"...Battery life is too short...." Read more

"...*Battery charger not included - Battery life is not a strength of these cameras (rated at 350 shots per charge) so you will want extra batteries...." Read more

"...I am taking off 1/2 star off.The battery life: I am used to mirrorless cameras and not so good battery life...." Read more

This is a fantastic camera and I've been through plenty of cameras. This is the one I'll be keeping. A little history... My first DSLR (9ish years ago) was a Nikon D40. I quickly outgrew that and bought a D90. After I while I wanted more. I got myself a D700 and that was a fantastic camera. At some point I got sick of the weight of heavy cameras and lenses. I sold all of my Nikon gear and bought a Sony Nex7. I loved the light weight...but I was never happy with the image quality. Sooo...back to Nikon. Bought a D7100 and a bunch of lenses. I took a trip to Italy and midway through the trip decided that I needed to look at other options. Once again I was sick of carrying around all that weight. I planned to sell my Nikon stuff (again) and look back at the mirrorless options. I never got the chance because my camera bag was stolen on the way to Milan. Once I got home I started investigating my options. I tried an Olympus E-M1 but that didn't suit me. It's a nice camera but just wasn't up to the standard in image quality that I was used to. Next, I tried the Fuji X-T1. That is a beautiful machine. I would've been happy with it...If I hadn't also tried out the Sony a7. I was happier with the image quality from the Sony, but happier with the feel of the Fuji camera. In the end, image quality won and I kept the Sony. For my type of photography (landscapes, portraits) the Sony fit me very well. The autofocus was acceptable, but not great. But with my kind of work this isn't that big a deal. But I was never happy with the quality of the actual camera body. Just felt a little cheap. Then the a7ii was announced and I decided to trade up. While the camera is a bit heavier, the trade off of AMAZING handling makes it well worth it. The camera oozes quality and feels much nicer to hold than any other mirrorless camera I have tried. The in-body image stabilization is also great. I can handhold with the 55 1.8 at 1/4 second pretty consistently. I can get good images slower that that too, but they are more hit-or-miss. Still, the fact that I CAN get clear images at 1 second is insane. Autofocus is also noticeably better than on the a7. It's not in the same league as a Nikon DSLR like my old D7100, but for me that's not a big deal. If I were shooting sports then the Sony would be out...simple as that.

For me, this is pretty much the perfect camera. I'm using it with the FE 55mm f1.8 and FE 16-35mm f4. I also have a Rokinon 85mm f1.4 (replaced my Nikon 85 1.4G that was stolen) and I just ordered a Canon FD 135mm f2.0 for portraits. That pretty much covers all my needs. Very very happy with this camera.

Oh, I also got a Nissin i40 flash for Christmas and it is a great match with this camera when you need it. It's remarkably powerful for its size and doesn't look ridiculous on the a7ii.

It's not perfect, but it is a fantastic camera.

I love this camera. Sold my a6000 when I got this and it's a massive upgrade. My first full frame digital. The difference is noticeable, but it's not a silver bullet - it doesn't make everything magically better. I am keeping my other crop cameras for both the reach and at least in the case of the a77ii, for its great AF system. The a7ii is primarily for using manual lenses, though the AF works great.

Pros:
* Image quality is great.
* Improved high ISO\low-light performance (over my prior cameras)
* I like the size\weight\handling. Many don't, but I've had 0 issues with it.
* Customizability. Coming from another system it's probably confusing. No problems here, familiar.
* AF system is good. Not the best, but for most it's perfectly fine.
* I'm able to use all my old a-mount FF lenses w\AF on LAEA4 adapter
* Focus peaking, magnification, zebra all very effective and useful for manual focusing
* IBIS for the vintage lenses (as long as you set it properly each time) can be a huge advantage in low-light, especially in conjunction with all the other capabilities.

Cons:
* APSC mode is only 10MP. This is really the only sore point that has me second guessing whether I should have sprung for an a7RII instead. But realistically the price point was beyond my reach atm.
* AF system isn't as good as the newest A7 models or the best DSLR's
* AF on LAEA4 adapter is passable for static subjects, but it's too slow for any sort of action.
* FE lenses can be expensive.

I've had it for about 2 months now, and I really don't have a lot of complaints about this camera at this time. Some of the cons I listed are a bit of a stretch and not specific to the camera. What you get for what you pay is an outstanding value and I don't see that changing. Depending on your needs this may not be the best option for you, the a7 might be sufficient in a more stripped down and compact package, or maybe having the best AF possible is more important than the full frame, etc. There's all sorts of options across many systems. Just think carefully about what you need and avoid an expensive impulse buy.

Great inexpensive full frame body.

It may not be the newest fancy model, but the colour quality is great. The camera boots up quickly and focusses quickly as well even in fairly low light. Also by using adapters, I can use 35mm full frame glass and APS-c smaller frame lens I have collected over the years. The 5 axis stabilization works perfectly with current Sony E-mount lenses and 3 axis (more basic) is the default stability for all other glass including everything from screw mount 50 year old glass to Minolta 20 year old glass with AF. Great addition to my kit.

Sony has very nice cameras; this model, I think, is a good deal for photographers, not videographers... I wasn't sure that I want to switch from Nikon, but I like the concept of using same lenses for a6000 series and A7 series :-)

Still learning how to use all the options. I was able to buy some old glass lenses for about $30 (28mm, 50mm) and take some outstanding portraits and landscapes. Very versatile.

Great camera, poor battery life

Excellent camera, I’ve really grown to love it. Keep in mind the battery life isn’t the best I would suggest a battery grip for anyone that is more then occasional shooter.
